[160m] Re: KREW signal

[D. Ramos]

Good work , Tom , in getting KREW to fix their signal. You were lucky 
in getting someone to answer the telephone and getting a technical 
person (chief engineer, I hope) to realize what was going on with 
their transmitter. I dread what would have happened if a dj or 
regular staff person had answered the phone (What is a spur??!!). 
Have a good weekend.

                                                                         Dan//
